Oliver O'Donovan's Ethics as Theology project began with Self,
World, and Time, an "induction" into Christian ethics as ordered
reflection on moral thinking within the life of faith. Volume 2,
Finding and Seeking, shifted the focus to the movement of moral
thought from a first consciousness of agency to the time that
determines the moment of decision. In this third and final volume
of his magnum opus, O'Donovan turns his attention to the forward
horizon with which moral thinking must engage. Moral experience, he
argues, is necessarily two-directional, looking both back at
responsibility and forward at aims. The Pauline triad of
theological virtues (faith, love, and hope) describes a form of
responsibility, and its climax in the sovereignty of love opens the
way to a definitive teleology. Entering into Rest offers
O'Donovan's mature reflections on questions that have engaged him
throughout his career and provides a synoptic view of many of his
main themes.
